How about some Watermelon....

June 1st already, my how time flies. Year of 2014 nearly half way over. Have been busy creating while here in El Paso, Texas visiting my son and family; and created this card using the June Card Kit.

TIP: Be creative in your use of supplies. Used the cover of a stamp pad for placing a acrylic stamp onto as I didn't bring my supplies/tools with me.

Supplies used:

Title and textured paper, piece of design paper from June Card Kit

Watermelon pieces and Ants from Lawn Fawn Happy Summer Stamp Set

Card base from Hobby Lobby

Ink from ink pad from Dollar Tree

I took a 8.5x11 sheet of white cardstock and cut in half, to create a 4.25x8.50 base..I just ripped the bottom edge off on both the card base and the green textured card stock. Using watercolor pencils I colored in the center of watermelon with red, and green on the edges. Hand cut the melons and attached foam tape to three slices of watermelon and set it on the green textured paper.
